The current mathematical education calls for a learning environment from the constructionism perspective that the learners actively create mathematical rather than receives them. This research made an attempt to analyzeJavaMAL’s expression ‘move’ that enables students to express the agent’s behavior constructively before they learn vector as a formal concept. Since expression ‘move’ is based on a coordinate, it naturally corresponds with the expression of vectors used in school mathematics and allows students take an embodied approach to the concept of vector. Furthermore, as a design tool, expression ‘move’ can be used in various activities includingvector structure. This research made an attempt toinvestigate the educational significance entailed in JavaMAL’s expression ‘move’.
